About the Item

Display sweets, crackers, or small pastries in this elegant antique French serving basket, crafted circa 1880. The round dish is made of brass and finished in silver plate, with a beautifully pierced and repoussé rim decorated in high relief with flowers, grape clusters, birds, and scrolling foliage. The richly worked openwork border creates depth and shadow, while the smooth central well provides a practical serving surface. The refined decorative program and naturalistic motifs are characteristic of late 19th-century French metalwork, blending functionality with ornamental artistry. This antique basket is in excellent condition commensurate with age and use, with a soft, luminous patina that enhances the detail of the repoussé decoration. Both decorative and functional, this versatile piece may be used on a dining table, sideboard, or bar to present sweets or hors d’oeuvres, or displayed on its own as a sculptural accent in a traditional or transitional interior.
